125 Foot Roof & Gutter Pre-Terminated Snowmelt Cable Kit

Stop ice dams in your gutters and prevent costly damage to your roof with the Roof & Gutter Snowmelt Kit. This kit contains what you need to get started installing a heating cable system on your roof edges to stop snow from accumulating and keep ice from blocking your gutter and downspout.

The kit is built to heat even in extreme cold, down to –40°F (–40°C). Its industrial-grade durability means it will not fail after a few seasons like many widely available heat tracing kits. It is easy to install (pre-assembled with a power cord and plug), and automatically regulates its heat output based on surface and ambient temperature to prevent overheating.

Optional but recommended: The Thermo Cube thermostatically controlled outlet is perfect for worry-free operation all year long. The Thermo Cube is a device which, when plugged into a standard GFCI 120 VAC (15 amp minimum) electrical outlet, will automatically turn power on and off to any device plugged into it. It will automatically turn on power when air temperature reaches approximately 35°F (2°C) and will turn off the power when the temperature exceeds approximately 45°F (7°C).
